LADY Gaga has sent fans into a spin after officially announcing her MAYHEM Ball tour – including four UK dates.
Flying Eze exclusively revealed yesterday how Lady Gaga was poised to confirm a string of gigs arranged for later this year.
The singer – real name Stefani Germanotta – has now confirmed that she will be kicking off her MAYHEM Ball tour in London this September.
Gaga's UK leg of her tour will see her perform three dates at London's O2 Arena and one at Co-op Live in Manchester.
She will then move onto central Europe, taking to the stage in countries including France, Germany and Sweden.
Gaga has promised her shows will be “theatrical and electrifying” and it comes after therelease of her hotly-anticipated albumMAYHEM.
But the Poker Face singer admitted that going on tour wasn't originally in her plan for 2025.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Gaga said today: “I wasn’t planning to tour this year after my shows in Singapore but the incredible response to the new album inspired me to keep things going.
“It came together super quickly thanks to Arthur Fogel and the amazing team at Live Nation, who planned a global tour in just a few weeks.
“We chose arenas this time to give me the opportunity to control the details of the show in a way you simply can’t in stadiums—and honestly, I can’t wait.”
Gaga added: “This show is designed to be the kind of theatrical and electrifying experience that brings MAYHEM to life exactly how I envision it.
“The MAYHEM Ball Tour is officially coming your way. See you soon, monsters.”
Gaga's first European gig will be at London's O2 Arena on Monday September 29.
She will perform again at the O2 the following night, before returning to the venue for another show on Thursday October 2.
Gaga will then travel up to Manchester and perform at Co-op Live on Tuesday October 7.
The singer's tour will run until November, visiting Sweden, Italy, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and France.
Before heading to the UK, Gaga has also announced she will be hitting the road for a 13-date tour across America.

Flying Eze exclusively revealed news of Lady Gaga's upcoming tour on Tuesday, with an insider saying that more dates could be added to her UK leg.
The source said: “Gagahas been booked to play concerts inLondonand Manchester.
“The current plan is to play two gigs at London’s O2 Arena and then another up north.
“More dates are pencilled in if the first batch sell out which obviously they will.”;
The last time Gaga played London’s O2 Arena was in October 2014 as part of her ArtRave: The Artpop Ball Tour.
She had been set to play the world famous venue as part of her 2018 Joanne World Tour but was forced to axe the gigs due to suffering from chronic pain caused by fibromyalgia.
However, almost a decade later she is now finally pain free.
